    He's a pretty alright Scout. I like how he's complex yet not too complex and all in a toy of this size class. I'm also quite liking the homage to Cybertron Scattorshot, because we don't get nearly as many homages to non-G1 things.

    I agree that the homage to non-G1 figures has been cool (Lockdown, Scattorshot, I'm now waiting for Lugnut) and he seems to evoke Cybertron Scattorshot quite well, the head mould just didn't seem to do a great job, and kinda let the whole thing down.

    I'm not sure if it was the big goggles, but Cyb. Scattorshot had this kinda nerdy vibe to him, whereas this new Scattorshot seems more of a rough fighting type. His head actually seems quite rounded and looking at it for a while evoked a bit of a G1 Brawn comparison, almost as if he was planned as a potentiall Brawn homage, but decided to go with the deluxe figure and use the scout as a different character.

    I'm beginning to regret not picking up Recon Ironhide, because now that I've got Scattorshit (as well as Brawn) I feel like I've got two of the heavily armed utes and now need the third.

    Very nice Scout class toy. ROTF has to have given us the best scout (basic) sized toys since Beast Wars.
